Outside of the top 15, countries are allotted a maximum of two players (with the host country, France, guaranteed one spot).

Here are the current standings, as of the week of July 24, 2023. The United States is the only country with four projected qualifiers, while a total of 33 countries are currently represented (click here for the women’s standings).
